  • 演講摘要 : This article investigates urban spatial development in a real options framework where a landowner irreversibly develops property in an uncertain environment. Land that is located far away from the central business district will be developed later, but on a larger scale regardless of whether uncertainty arises or not. However, land development will not continuously move outwards from the central business district under poor demand or supply conditions. It is also found that a landowner will develop property later, but more densely if (i) uncertainty becomes greater; (ii) the returns to undeveloped land are higher; and (iii) the development costs are expected to grow more slowly.
